The clubbing Of the Anarchists at their
meeting is still The talk of the town, and
the man who thinks that even an Anarchist
I has not a fair show in the United States
, has only to look at the comments of the
j press on their treatment. believe in the
J liberty of the press, and the liberty of
speech, and the right Of petition, with all
the privileges that citizen of this Repuh-
lie is entitled TO enjoy; but / do not believe
